A Sunday Poem: “Sitcom”

 

Don’t miss!
All-new episodes!

Canada is kicking off
another season of The Premiers.

Can Horgan and Kenney
see eye to eye on pipelines?

Would Pallister follow Savikataaq
on carbon tax?

Will Ford and Trudeau
keep their smiles
when the cameras are gone?

This season
will reveal the biggest mystery:
Can the Premiers
agree on anything
other than more money
and less intervention
from the federal government?
